Neons
Can I stick a blue neon light under each seat? Is the whole car gona glow blue or just the floor?
I know it's ricey, I'm definitely not a ricer, but I think it'd be fun. so fuck you guys. :lala Also, how do you wire it to be able to turn it on and off? I'm definitely not gona do it if it's just on all the time...that would suck. |

they plug into your lighter and they have a switch so you can turn them on/off
they are about 14 bucks a light and it will only make your floor glow not the whole cabin. |

when neons are done right they look great, only whodies knock everybody for having neons, now true most neons look booty, but the color on the right car only compliments it. dont listen to haters with japlopys, do what you like.

i was something really cool the other day... i'll have to look it up. this kit replaces your radiator and all your other hoses with "unbreakable" clear glass (i saw a clip where they ran the glass over with a truck and it didn't break) so you can see all your fluids flowing... it also had led's in the glass so at night it light up. it was pretty cool shit. |

Would anyone have some installation instructions (unless they're included wiht the lights?) for how to connect direct? can they still be turned on and off even when connected direct? |

..yeah....but like I mentioned earlier, I'd want to keep my cigarette lighter free for other stuff (phone charger). I only have one. How can I connect it to the car's battery without plugging it into the lighter?
I have a black light in my car that's hooked up like that, someone else did it though so I don't know how, but I know it can be done. It was on all the time though, which bugged me, but that's okay cus a few weeks later it just stopped working altogether for some reason. |

if the wire isn't long enough buy more wire and use a butt connector to attach them. |

There's nothing wrong with ebay at all unless you don't know what the hell you're doing, I've been ebaying forever, you just have to be educated, and the people who say neons are cool .. are right .. you have to have the right color and have to know what you're doing, you never want to see the light source, just the light ..second anywhere a wire could rub wrap it or use wire loom .. finally .. make sure the color accents the car .. don't be doing green and yellows on red and blue cars.. ... anyway .. good luck and if you need help send me a pm .. I've been doing custom work along with brandsdaman for about 8 years now .. body kits, car audio, accessories ..
